A licensed counselor provides individual and group counseling sessions to support students with personal issues such as anxiety, grief, stress, self-esteem, peer relationships, or academic struggles. The counselor may also provide career guidance and help with transitioning to high school.
Spiritual Guidance and Support:
Spiritual counseling services are available to help students explore their faith, navigate moral dilemmas, and grow in their understanding of Catholic teachings. This could include one-on-one spiritual guidance, participation in retreats, and discussions about the sacraments.
Behavioral Support:
For students who may need additional assistance with behavioral challenges, the school may offer programs to develop positive behavior, social skills, and conflict resolution. This may involve one-on-one sessions with a counselor, small group workshops, or tailored behavior plans.
Crisis Intervention:
In the event of a crisis, such as a death in the family, natural disaster, or trauma, the school provides immediate emotional support and connects students and families to outside resources like mental health professionals, social workers, or clergy.
